Question

Elevator is on the 16th floor. It goes up 12 floors, down 7 floors, up 3 floors, and then down 5

floors. What floor does the elevator stop on?

Answer 1

The elevator stops on the 19th floor.

Explanation:

On the 16th floor, goes up 12 floors:

16 + 12 = 28

On the 28th floor, goes down 7 floors:

28 - 7 = 21

On the 21st floor, does up 3 floors:

21 + 3 = 24

On the 24th floor, goes down 5 floors:

24 - 5 = 19
